Ive been looking at the Torque Pro app and would love some feedback.

Does it work well with our van?

What plug-in/Bluetooth device works well?

Thank you for your answers.

Um, bump.

I've used it in my van, but only briefly to check for codes before I bought it. I'll have to hunt down the transmitter to get you the actual model info.

Very much appreciated.

I've used it in the past. Have since switched to Dash (free). Both provide instant MPG and gauges. Dash has a nicer interface. I use the cheap Bluetooth interfaces from eBay (elm 27)and leave it plugged 24/7 no issues.

I had a local shop unable to start the car twice. Not sure what they did, but they ended up blowing 2 fuses and claimed it was the Bluetooth device. I've stopped going to them and no one else has had a problem.

i use torque pro.. works well for the most basic OBDII stuff.. however, you cant get some of the advanced information out of it since we dont know the honda PID's = for example, the PCM outputs tire pressure, trans oil temp and other things that if we knew the PID's we could get. I will have to give dash a try. I too use the generic elm bluetooth and it works most of the time.. Only complaint there is torque will bitch about high speed communications from the adapter.

Excellent infomation, guys. Thank you. Now of the Apps mentioned, along with any others, which would serve best a data logger?

used dash for the last few days and while nice and simple.. i like torque for its customizable operation. in my opinion i think torque is better at logging

For the purpose of reading the reported by CEL and turning it off, it works well. I have done this for Audi and Honda cars
